Accessibility and the Future of Mobility

How people get from point A to point B isn’t the same as it was 100 years ago, and it won’t be the same 100 years from now. We’re witnessing the change now. The transportation paradigm is in flux due to broad societal shifts in how people, businesses, and governments think about sustainability and productivity, and, as technology advances, it opens new doors for things like electric and autonomous vehicles. Mobility as we know it today isn’t inclusive. A new mobility ecosystem has the potential to solve issues present in the current ecosystem, leading to, as Deloitte puts it, “faster, cheaper, cleaner, safer, more efficient, and more customized travel.”

Imagine this: In a manufacturing plant, workers can do picks without getting off their vehicles. They have a forklift they are driving, and they can get the next picking instruction while still driving because they can scan the barcode from a distance. Or what about this: Wind turbine workers can climb up and down and leave the laptop on the ground. At the same time, technology is self-documenting, and the reports are creating themselves. This is what the future of work will look like with the help of assisted-reality wearables for frontline workers. Assisted reality is a non-immersive experience and has become a good solution for frontline industrial workers, especially where high situational awareness is necessary. Assisted reality experiences are closer to the physical world—when compared to VR (virtual reality) and AR (augmented reality) experiences that immerse workers in the metaverse. Consider this example of assisted reality. In December, RealWear unveiled RealW
